I wish that they'd make an HG kit of the Gustav Karl suit from Hathaway. It looks so much nicer than the Unicorn version. Maybe it'll release whenever Hathaway 2 is finished.

I cant remember what a Gustav Karl is and I looked it up and I thought 'hm, those legs would be good in a Prodoros kitbash'. I've got problems. Edit: lol no the prices on that kit are ridic --- Because I'm on a bit of a macross kick I thought I'd check out videos and reviews of how Hasegawa kits are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQ7yqikMyQA This is 15 minutes of pure pain as the builder cries and fixes up all the janky bits (the entire kit) Synthbuttrange fucked around with this message at 05:22 on Dec 30, 2023 |

That's just because it's between print runs. There should be more come Hathaway 2, given the way reprints usually work, which'll drop the prices back down.

Been a while since I actually finished off some gunpla, but I've now completed the RG Epyon. Pretty cool build. Wings were a bit of a pain in the rear end when I made a mistake on one of them and had to pry it apart without breaking pegs though.   Next project: the Zeta ver Ka I picked up in Tokyo on the cheap.

 Just one more Armed Armor to make and it'll be finished, although I nailed my thumb with a knife so I'm not overly keen on doing all those decals. Also the lights on one leg completely died, but I'm not buying a second kosmos kit just to swap it out so eh.

Help, I was researching gunpla to give my husband something for christmas and in doing so managed to pick up the hobby myself Now three HG kits have not only appeared but have assembled themselves and have taken over the shelf (HG Schwarzette was first, then HG Aerial and HG Infinite Justice) Waiting in the wings, HG Michaelis with HG Calibarn, HG Lfrith (Recirculation, Black and Neon Pink) and finally MG Full Armour Thunderbolt Ver.

Gunpla will propagate and multiply through your home. There is no treatment, there is only more Gunpla. Also what did your husband get if those are your own?

I suggest perusing the kits on this site: http://dalong.net/ Use the navigation at the very top of the site to view different sets of kits. Also, don't forget to click "English Catalog" to get the English names of each suit.

 Masking the whole thing took a hell of a lot of work and time. But I got to airbrushing up the main grey for the Regult. And I forgot to do the collar around the main guns anyway hahah, but oh well I've still got the brighter grey for the main face to do so I can tackle it then. Thats like the bulk of it done now. But then it'll just be the base coat. Decals and weathering and repairing mistakes will also be on the menu :v Just the basecoat makes it look like ive made huge progress though hahah

I just finished a PBandai Permet-score 6 Aerial and that's probably the best HG it I've ever made, and it's super poseable. It doesn't hurt that they aren't particularly expensive either. Like, twelve to twenty bucks depending on where you're getting it from, and it's always tempting to just buy every kit from the WFM line when I see them because they're so stylish and cool.

Noticed that the schwarzette white runners are a bit whiter than I figured they'd be. Thought it would be a bit more like the stein narr version. Im wondering how difficult it would be to properly recolor them to grey.

I got husband HG IBO Vidar and WFM Lfrith. Apparently he's built MG before (they are in storage) but hasn't built anything for a number of years. Next on the build list : Michaelis, then Calibarn.
